CAS 173159-57-4: Foramsulfuron
Description:Foramsulfuron is a selective herbicide primarily used in agriculture for the control of certain grass and broadleaf weeds in crops such as corn and sugarcane. It belongs to the sulfonylurea class of herbicides, which function by inhibiting the enzyme acetolactate synthase (ALS), crucial for the synthesis of essential amino acids in plants. This inhibition leads to the cessation of growth and eventual death of the targeted weeds. Foramsulfuron is characterized by its systemic action, allowing it to be absorbed by the foliage and roots of plants, providing effective control even in challenging conditions. The compound is typically applied post-emergence, making it suitable for use during the growing season. It is known for its low toxicity to mammals and birds, which contributes to its favorable environmental profile when used according to label directions. Additionally, foramsulfuron is often formulated with other active ingredients to enhance its efficacy and broaden the spectrum of weed control. As with all herbicides, proper application and adherence to safety guidelines are essential to minimize potential environmental impacts.
